Installing “[email protected]” into GitHub's Atom Editor failed

I am trying to install the atom-typescript package for GitHub's Atom Editor. When I press the install button it displays following error message. 

Installing "[email protected]" failed.

Compiler tools not found

Packages that depend on modules that contain C/C++ code will fail to install.

Read here for instructions on installing Python and Visual Studio

Can't figure out what's the problem.

Has anybody encountered the same issue?

you can install it manually instead

CD to ~/.atom/packages clone the project from github,

git clone https://github.com/TypeStrong/atom-typescript

cd to 

   atom-typescript

and run

npm install

restart atom.

You can try to install from the command line by closing all instances of Atom then issuing the following command:

apm install atom-typescript

If this is not a fresh install then you will want to uninstall the previous package first:

apm uninstall atom-typescript

If you get the same error message you can check to see if the native tools are actually installed from Atom / apm's perspective:

apm install --check

If the latter command fails then you can update your question with any details.
